KHTS Washington DC Group Wraps Up A Productive Trip

The final day of the KHTS Washington DC trip wrapped up an extremely successful trip with a private lunch and tour of the Capitol, hosted by Congressman Mike Garcia.

On Monday over two dozen Santa Clarita leaders traveled to Washington to advocate for issues impacting our Valley.

Last night, Congressman Darrell Issa spoke to the group at a dinner at the famous Capitol Hill Club.

On Wednesday, the group met with Jennifer Klocinski from the Administration from Community Living. Kevin MacDonald, the Executive Director of the SCV Senior Center was in our group. They had the opportunity to connect and talk about enhancing the funding the SCV Senior Center was already receiving and applying for other grants.

Amber Raskin, founder of SCVi and Eric Harnish, Vice-President of Communications at College of the Canyons also explored potential grant opportunities.

Congressman Mike Garcia hosted lunch in a private dining room in the Rayburn Building, answering questions he didn’t cover in our earlier meetings. On Monday evening he had given our group a special tour of the Capitol. Many participants went back to the Capitol for another look around during the afternoon.

The KHTS Washington DC trip was a huge success with many new ideas and opportunities being brought back to Santa Clarita.

About Carl Goldman

Carl Goldman, along with his wife, Jeri repurchased KHTS AM-1220, Santa Clarita’s hometown station on October 24, 2003. They owned it from 1990-1998, and then sold it to Clear Channel Communication in 1998, buying it back from Clear Channel in 2003. Since then, they have rebuilt KHTS as a critical voice of the Valley. In 2015 the radio station moved to its new headquarters on Main Street in Old Town Newhall, in the original Newhall Hardware building. In 2018 an FM was added, 98.1, with its signal being simulcast with AM-1220. In January 2020, Carl and Jeri cruised on the Diamond Princess. Carl was one of the first Americans to come down with Covid-19. Months earlier he was impacted by Guillain Barre Syndrome as a result of a Shingles vaccine in September 2019. He is still in recovery from the vaccine.
